Nominated

I was more than a little surprised to discover this morning that I had been nominated for the Family Tree 40 for 2011 in the "My Family History" category. Actually, I'm pretty speechless about the whole thing. Nominations came at a pretty busy time for me and I completely missed the boat. I'm happy that the blogs I wanted to nominate were and amazed (and humbled) that I've been included with them.

To whomever nominated me: Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. The last couple weeks have been kind of hard for me for a variety of reasons so I can't even begin to say how much this has lifted my spirits.

About

I'm a 20-something, long-time genealogy enthusiast from Northern California. My paternal ancestry is mostly concentrated in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Ontario, Canada. On my mother's side, I am a 6th generation Californian, with ties further back to many of the lower 48 states.
